IA if it's about liking the show or series or not.
But I kinda get it if they mean it changes their experience in the fandom. If retcons happen then people split into people who like the retcons, people who reject the retcons, new people who don't even realize retcons happened, on and on. And then if you try to talk about the original show you have to explain every time that you're trying to discuss something ignoring this or that new canon, where this or that did or didn't happen, where this or that event did or did not drastically change some character or backstory...
It creates a whole lot of different "canon AUs" that get complicated to navigate.
